ALTRED CRAVEN. April 23 16 3t ? raiisHnnniM. Tsrms bo familiar to the ear that they may be regarded as "household words"?terms that have been used hundreds and thousands of times by men, women, and children, by those ont of the profession and by those in it; and with the latter especially, have the terms become so ingratiated into their good will, favor and affection, that they have as much fondness for their use as have the Fejee Islanders for roasted Missionaries, and certainly one can have as much charity for these South Sea barbarians, and can recognize with as much christian consideration their canibal propensities, as the physiciaa who will make use of so mysterious, unmeaning terms as "liver disease," "liver complaints." How often has the physician, with his long, sanctimoneous, and exceedingly wise-looking phiz, said to his patient, "you have thcliver disease." What does he mean by it? does he mean nervous disease, and inflammatory disease, an engorged condition of the liver, an nncemic condition, a condition where the secretion id too profuse or the same too little, a swollen conv. dition, an enlarged condition, an indurated condition, a softened condition, or what does he mean j ?his patient certainly must he at a loss to conjecture. Perhaps he means a "slight touch" of the whole combined?"von grand combination." Now if he meant that hispatient had congested, or inflamed, enlarged, swollen, or indurated liver, and had said so, he then would have been understood at once and the pathological condition comprehended. Now the first question to be solved, is, what is the cause of the above pathological conditions of < the Liver. Th<Ssetting aside this one simple question, with no attempt to ascertain a knowledge of i causes, has led to a treatment, to say the least, very prejudicial to the health of thousands, and it j might be said that a want of knowledge as regards the true cause of those conditions of the liver and the treatment that has been instituted in consequence, has been the total ruination of the health and constitution of tens of thousands in every section of the country. I allude to the blue pill treatment?a treatment that has too long been relied upon where no good results have been discovered ?a treatment that is daily hurrying hundreds and thousands to a premature grave. Previous to speaking of the cause of those conditions of the liver, let us bear in mind that the same net-work of nerves that are distributed to the stomach are also distributed to the Liver; and let us also bear in mind that the same mucus membrane that lines the stomach, passes down into the duodenum, the first bowel, and on through the dacts that lead from this bowel to their remotest ramifications throughout the entire substance of the Liver. ? What are the symptoms of a congested or inflamed condition of the liver? The very same symptoms thai exhibit themselves in congestion of the. mucus membrane of the digestive organs. And now what are the causes of the ?bovc mentioned pathological condition of the liver? I answer, a congested, irritnted^nd inflamed condition of themuens membrane of the digestive organs. This is the cause, and the only cause, of those diseases. From exhaustion and over stimulation of the capilliary vessels of the mucus membrane of the stomacu, brought about by stimulating food, bad water, spiritous liquors, exposure, mental exertion, &c., &c.; and last, but not least, the pernicious habit of continually swallowing down stimulating medicines, such as "tonic bitters," "cathartic pills," &c., an imflammatory action is lighied up in tbat membrane. From the very close connection betweon the stomach and liver, by not only the same net-work of nerves that are distributed to the one Koinir nlrin distributed to tile other, but also the .,v.uc , mucus membrane of the other, an extension of disease, very readily through that chief characteristic of a living body?sympathy?takes place from the stomach to the liver, producing a congested state of that organ. The cause continuing, viz: the inflamed state of the mucus membrane of the stomach, (which is too often the case by the taking of the many specifics, such as blue pill, calomel, "cathartic pills," and other "patent" pills, &c. &c..) the congested condition of the liver passes on into another condition. viz: swollen liver?a condition where there is no actuul addition of substance, but where its own legitimate tissue is in a state of expansion, or puffed out. These two pathological conditions fothe liver, are very readily curable under judicious treatment; but if at this stage of the dissease stimulation is resorted to for the purpose of forcing secretions, by calomel, blue pill, or the thousand and. one different "anti-billious" and other "patent" pills that are scattered broad-cast throughout thejwhole civilized world, there willbe deposited iuto its texture from the pent-up blood that the organ contain?, a hard. yellowish white substance, and produce that condition known as enlarged ljvcr a patholigical condition which no time or remedy ca?emove, but which will sooner or later, pass into still another pathological condition, viz: that of iudurated Liver?a state ' where it becomes a shrunken, shrivelled, and bard mass, from wasting of its cellular tissue, and hangs pendulously, dangling and rattling abount in the side like seeds in a dry squash, with itsfunctions entirely suspended. With this condition of the Liver, there are now 1 throughout the United States, thousands and tens i of thousands lost to every hope of recovery, for I no time, circumstance or remedy, can ever change the condition?a condition, wl.ich I am sorry to < say, is in ninety-nine cases out of every hundred, i brought about by the pernicious habit of dosing \ with calomel, blue pills, and the thousands of i specifics in shape of "patent" pills, to be found in ] every nook and corner of the Union. i As regards these pathological conditions of the < liver being brought about and kept up through ' spmpathy with an inflamed mucus membrane of < the stomach, there need not be the slightest shade of the shadow of doubt by closely watching the < symptoms, and making close inquiries concerning < the early history ef the case, for in my btlirf there nerer tens even a single isolated case of either of the above mentioned pathological conditions of the Liver \ but that there teas previously to it, or concomitantly < irith it, a disease of the digestive organs. I Believing these notions correct ones, let us be- ' fore we quit the subject, take a cursory glance at I the system of calomel, blue pill, and "patent" pill i medication. And why arc they exhibited? why. < as the pill venders suy, to "stimulate the secrotions of the liver," which means the liver to pour 1 out inorc bile. Now, how do they stimulate the < liver, for they don't touch the liver at all, and it is physically impossible that they should. If they don't come in contact with the liver, how is it possible for them to stimulate that organ ? I'll tell you how they do it. They cannot, for it is I physically impossible for them to stimulate the liver < to act, except hi/ previously stimulating the mucus I membrane of the stomach and by extension of irrita- 1 It on from the stomach to the liver. This is the way the iivcr is stimulated to act by the use of those i remedies. They irritate the mucus membrane of the stomach, the very membrane which, bear in 1 mind, is already in an over-excited and irritated 1 condition, and from which condition of membrane, the liver, through sympathy with the diseased mem- 1 brane, became originally diseased. Now it strikes me this is curing "Liver Disease" with a venge- i ance?curing it by still father irritating and in- I flaming a mucus membrance which was the whole cause of the disease in the first place. ? < My pill friends may say that their pills don't irritate the mucus membrane of the stomach. If they don't irritate the stomach and bowels, how is it that they cause the bowels to move? The bowels would not move unless they were stimulated to action, and that the bowels do move is proof positive that they have been stimulated to action. They may say that the "liver disease" is not ' caused by a previously diseased and irritated stomach. Well, if they don't believe that un in- ( flamed and irritated stomach will iritate the liver, J why do they exhibit their pills then, for they know (or ought to) that their pills do not and cannot toach the liver at all, and that they can only irritate and J stimulate the liver by first irritating and stimulating ' the mucus mcmbrae of the stomach. So it is easily 1 to be seen, that they, after all, do know that an ir- i ritated and diseased stomach produces an irritated < and diseased liver, and acknowledge it by administering their pills. ] They may say, "Well, your theory reads very 1 well, and is very pretty to look at, but if it is true, why is it our pills cure ?" Ah! there's a question about that matter; do they cure ? that's the question ; and a pretty important question it is too.? If they will cure there are a mighty many mean, niggardly and penurious invalids scattered through out the United States that won't pay a "quarter" for a box of pills and good health, for there are timucnnrlQ and tens of thousands that are now suf fering from those very diseases which those pills are said to cure. This looks strange, certainly, that a man should value a "quarter" more than good health. The truth of this whole matter is simply this; the above mentioned pathological condition of the liver is kept up by an irritated and diseased condition of the digestive organs; and whatever medicine is taken into the stomach that increses, instead of allaying, this disease of the digestive organs, will not only do the disease of the liver no good, but a great deal of harm ; for whatever increases the irritation and disease of the stomach will increase the irritation and disease of the liver; and this, I fancy, is the very reason why there are at this very moment ss many thousands that are sick and suffering from diseases of the liver, and have been, for years, notwithstanding they have swallowed pills enough daring the time to shingle ' & museum. Pills won't do, because they increase instead of lessen the disease of the stomach. | And now, in conclusion, I will remark that it is easily to be seen that the trne indication of treatment are to lessen the irritability and inflammatory action of the stomach, which is the caose and the only caose, of the disease of the liver. What shall be our remidies ? Any that meet the indica? tion. Any remedy that will calm and soothe an irritated mucns membrane of the stomach, and dissipate whatever of inflammatory action may be larking there, is a proper remedy. One, and a ery important one, among the few of this olass of remedies, is "BLISS* DY8PEPTIC REMEDY" ?a remedy that is now engaging the attention of both those in and oat of the profession more than any other preparation that has ever been placed before the people?a remedy that is now beinc tested, and with the most happy results, by hundreds and thousands in every section of the country?a remedy that will not disappoint in its curative eff?ec?rif Tt be taken and persevered in, and the directions properly complied with. It will not fail in the most stubborn case, no matter of how long standing or Bew intractable it may have been it will certainly cure if directions are complied with, and the treatment preserved in. I hope however, no one will commence with the Remedy supposing that they have to take but a single package to be entirely cured of a disease that has been tormenting them for years. One package will no doubt do a great deal of good, may, in fact lead the patient to suppose he is almost well, but be should persevere in the taking of it, and keep the system under its influence for some time. It may be that the first package, and even the second, may fail to produce, apparently, and alteration for the better. Should this prove to be the case with any invalid, be should - continue its use, for he may depend upon it that it will sooner or . later remove every vestige of the disease. W. W.
